Five stars are not enough to rate this trip. The planning was perfect, the details spot-on. The local guide was knowledgeable and warm. She invited us into her home and life, even making us a traditional local meal in her kitchen. The addition of a local designer who is also a poet/philosopher added another dimension of local connection. This is a first-rate trip for anyone interested in learning about Iceland and the country’s history and current connection to textiles. This is not an adventure trip, but the trip is a fantastic adventure.

Quality trip full of learning, adventure and creativity. The lodging, food and our guides were top notch. This trip is highly unique in that local flavor was the focus: tour guide and designer traveling with our group of amazing ladies, artisans and crafters from an Icelandic area most tourists don't roam and community sheep roundup. Priceless!

It was a sensational trip with 15 strong, capable and soul-searching women! Phenomenal outdoor experience in pristine wilderness that challenges your senses and creates an ethereal experience and bond with nature and great people. Highly recommend!

It was an amazing experience with fantastic guides and people! Lori is the best and it was fun to meet Kelly, too. The beauty, wildlife, fantastic food and new friendships were beyond fantastic. Some were out of their comfort zones, but Aggapah and Lori helped everyone adapt and learn new skills. The Aggapah staff was so much fun and could paddle and cook like no other. It was an adventure that I loved and hope to have more great adventures with Green Edventures.

Green Edventures has done it again!! This was a wonderful trip! Our trip leader, Lori, was organized and fun. The local guides were knowledgeable and cooked us delicious meals. Meeting women from all across the country and spending time with them learning about the history and land of Idaho was just what I needed after a busy few months. Thank you, Lori and Green Edventures. I can't wait to see what exciting trips you have planned for 2025!

I went on an amazing trip with Tara to Baja, Mexico in 2020. This was a dream trip for me being a wildlife lover. It was incredible to be able to swim with whale sharks and sea lions and get up close with gray whales. Camping on the beach was amazing. We had a great group of women and everyone vibed well and all of the tour guides including Tara, Alex and Chabello were so fun, friendly and helpful every step of the way. The food was great at the campsite and at the restaurants we got to try. When our trip plans initially got derailed waiting on a negative Covid test and we had to get a different flight, Tara did everything in her power to accommodate us and make sure we got to enjoy every part of the trip, including setting us up with another whale shark swimming tour after we had missed the initial one with the group, and she spent time waiting for us to finish before leaving for the airport. I definitely recommend Green Edventures, especially the Baja Mexico trip!

I just returned from the Wisconsin Women's Tour and couldn't have asked for a better trip! For me, the amount and type of activity were perfect. Who know there was so much to discover practically in my own backyard?
